Hello, and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts! We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed your coworkers and found value in our training programs and technology. We are, however, disappointed to hear that we fell short of your expectations in terms of managerial support and follow through. We hope you had an opportunity to share your feedback with leadership and HR before your departure, but we would still welcome the chance to speak with you if not - so please do not hesitate to reach out if there are more details that you would like to share with us. Otherwise, we thank you again for taking the time and for sharing your feedback; it only helps us to improve.

Pros

The benefits are nice, especially since you get a discount on rent. Everyone is also eager to help one another, and the company has programs to help you succeed in being promoted.

Cons

Rent is still a bit expensive with the discount. Residents take out their problems on your since you are the face of the community.
